Plumeria Resort (Wong-Amat)

Everything was arranged, I spent a long time reading and choosing a hotel because I bought a tour in advance for the New Year. My wife can't stand boat ferries - this is an ideal choice, the beach is 5 minutes away. The beach, of course, is without exoticism like in Anapa, only Russians with our domestic rudeness. But relatively clean. The hotel itself is conveniently located surrounded by greenery, the room has everything. Breakfast is sufficient. To the right, 10 minutes away, is the KEMP market, where you can eat delicious national dishes and fresh juices in the evening while listening to live music. There is also a travel agency 7th tour, we bought everything there, it was profitable! On the left is the street to Nakula and there are tuktuks. In the Terminal store, things are expensive, but you can pay with a Union Pay card and get a tax refund when you return, and on the 5th floor there is the Pierre food court, where it’s cheaper to eat. The hotel quietly and comfortably decides what they would like: the air conditioner is very noisy - fix it.

We rested in this hotel in November 2023. Together with my husband. The hotel is not bad, but clearly old, the rooms are in dire need of renovation, the furniture is old and shabby. The keys are ordinary, not cards, I’ve seen this a couple of times in Thailand at most. The pluses are large rooms with a kitchen (although we hardly used it), overlook the pool, the staff is attentive, the cleaning is quite acceptable for Thailand, they didn’t skimp on beach towels: if you took one with you to the beach, you could bring another one, like they did There were 4 towels between us, they were also changed upon request. The tuk tuk, which took us every hour to Naklua, can take us a second time, we were late, we asked, the driver made another trip. The area is clean, 2 swimming pools, each with a jacuzzi. In general, there was a feeling that the hotel was a maximum of a third full, although it was the children's holidays and the beginning of the season. In connection with this, there was no crowding, there are always free places by the pool, 2-3 sun loungers are occupied and that’s it. The downside is that the breakfast is very modest. It’s not that there’s nothing to eat, but it’s strictly the same thing every day and there’s really nothing to vary there. In a sense, it’s convenient that the main course: omelet, scramble, scrambled eggs or boiled eggs is ordered at the bar, that is, no matter what time you come for breakfast, you won’t be left without a hot dish, but everything else doesn’t change from day to day. There are no cheeses or cereals at all, only watermelon from fruit, and waffles from baked goods. The main course always came with a piece of breaded chicken; I had never eaten this before in Thailand; it was not a Thai dish at all, but it was unexpectedly tasty. It is also not very convenient that breakfast is from 8 to 11, it would be better from 7 to 10. Departure for excursions is usually at 8 o’clock and we could not have breakfast in the morning, while 10 minutes would have been enough for us so as not to go hungry. Once we ordered lunch boxes and they were hung on the door handle at about 10 pm. There were sandwiches and a boiled egg. The air conditioner deserves a special mention. My husband doesn’t like it very cold, we struggled for a long time trying to adjust it to be warmer. The remote control reacts rather strangely, the buttons beep, but there is no result. But the most important thing is the noise. In general, this is not the first time I have encountered noisy air conditioners, I react normally to it, since I sleep soundly, the noise does not bother me at all, but this noise is more than strange, from time to time it changed its tone and several times I jumped up in full confidence that it was starting to rain outside , I pull back the curtain, and it’s quiet and quiet outside the window. Then the sounds made by the air conditioner changed several times, and in general it was difficult to realize what was happening around, especially when half asleep. In addition, the air conditioning system itself is installed directly under the balcony, it was not very pleasant when you were relaxing on the balcony and suddenly the air conditioner started rattling. In general, the impression of the hotel is favorable, make repairs, improve the breakfasts - you won’t get a price, because the location is super, and the fact that the hotel is low-rise is only a plus, I love such hotels - a chamber, private atmosphere, as if the whole hotel is your personal villa.
